[QUOTE="UAL727, post: 3605, member: 1280"] Just a word to the wise on the mechanics strike vote and the negiotations with management. In the past year it was not only managements fault for not operating in good faith, but it was also the IAM fault. When the company started talking to them in 2000, the IAM delayed as long as they could to see what NWA received in their contract. The IAM did not want AFMA to get something better for their guys NWA. Then, my understanding is that, IAM delayed a little longer on talks, while the vote to bring AFMA on property and get rid of IAM went through. On 9/10 our CSR and other non mechanics under IAM had come close to a settlement. But after 9/11, well for a few weeks the company has distracted. Then off course we get a new CEO and that did delay talks till he could get up to speed. As far as the mechanics, I feel sorry for them. They have been at the mercy of the IAM and the IAM is more worried about being throwen off the property, than in negotations. The new CEO is in a tight spot. Can't give lots money right now, and he was not here in the last two years. (Believe me I don't support our management whole heartedly, but I am willing to give the new CEO a chance.) I only hope that the two can come to an agreement and not a strike. :( :confused: [/QUOTE]
